In my understanding this statement confirms the fact that these two areas set the basis for civilization processes, ensure rural areas development for the decades to come. What makes us particularly glad is the fact that the changes that have taken place in this sector have affected mentality to a large extent. This has been indicated in the reports that in 2004 the European Union's idea enjoyed the support of ​​24% of farmers, while in 2014 it has gone up to 68%. This provides tremendous growth potentials and dynamism and has been demonstrated with the on-going Agrotech Expo development - said Mr. Piotr Żołądek, a member of the Voivodship Board at the opening of the Expo.
